~ 101-1. Legislative intent.
Whereas m.any of the multiple-family dwellings in the Town of Wappinger have been converted
into condominium complexes, wherein each dwelling unit is individually owned by a separate
owner, and whereas the common areas are managed by a Board of Managers who normally
contract out with management agents to control and maintain the' common areas, it has been
determined by the Town Board that it has become increasingly difficult to obtain compliance
with the New York State Uniform Fire Prevention and Building Code in the common areas
when violations occur, because of the problem of communicating with the appropriate parties
responsible for the maintenance and repair of the common areas. With this concern in mind, the
Town Board deems it to be necessary in the interests of the public health, welfare and safety of
the residents of the Town of Wappinger that certain registration requirements be imposed upon
the Board of Managers of all condominiums located in the Town of Wappinger.
~ 101-2. Registration required; renewal.
For any building or groups of buildings which are classified as. "multiple dwellings," as
described in the New York State Uniform Fire Prevention and Building Code, and where each
individual dwelling unit is individually owned by a form of condominium ownership, the Board
of Managers of the common area of said complexes shall be required to register in accordance
with this chapter and to renew their registration on an annual basis.
~ 101:-3. Requirements for registration.
The Board of Managers of all condominiums in the Town of Wappinger shall register with the
Town of Wappinger Town Clerk and said registration shall contain the following information to
be filed with the Town Clerk and the Town Building Inspector and Fire Inspector:
